In 1935, only 10% of rural America had electricity. Linemen changed that, one pole at a time.
They climbed in all weather—summer heat, winter ice, spring storms. They strung wire across miles of farmland, bringing light to families who had lived by kerosene lamps for generations. They worked dangerous jobs for modest pay, knowing they were changing lives.
By 1950, 90% of farms had electricity. An army of linemen had wired the countryside.
At {BUSINESS_NAME}, we believe in that lineman spirit. When {CITY} needs something done—really done, not just promised—we climb the pole. Some jobs just require getting up there.
Climbing for you.
